Maternity bump session at Trigg beach

It’s pretty incredible what our bodies can do right? Maternity sessions are one of my favourites because it reminds me how incredible we are as women and how beautiful and incredible our bodies are. These guys were totally loved up during their maternity session at Trigg beach in Perth’s northern suburbs, so excited to meet their little one. Make sure you scroll to the bottom to see Gabbi’s beautiful baby bump in the summer sun.

As a family portrait photographer, I strive to capture natural, candid moments that reflect the essence of this super special time in life.

SARAH AND JARRAD’S COAST PORT BEACH WEDDING

Laughs, champagne and good vibes was the theme for this beautiful wedding was located at the Coast Port beach restaurant in Fremantle, Perth with a beautiful view right onto the ocean.

Sarah and Jarrad are a super relaxed couple and wanted the very best day full of laughs, champagne and good vibes and they wanted their photography from the day to capture that same energy. I say this all the time and ill keep saying it- the only way to achieve the candid good vibes is to have fun, relax, enjoy being together, soak in all the love from your friends and family and let me photograph that!

Sarah looked incredible on the day, her beautiful gown was from Luv bridal, her hair was HC Artisty and makeup was: Koko Blaq who specialise in the incredible glamour waves the girls are all showcasing.

This was the most wonderful, relaxed, good vibed wedding to be be able to photograph.

The Humberstone's at Trigg Beach

Having a family shoot can be a huge deal when there’s a few tuckers to organise so here’s a few little tips from me to you to help your family session go a little smoother-

1. Choose somewhere that represents you as a family and also somewhere you will look back on and remember all the memories you held together. Does your family like to go to the beach, surf, explore, play, cook. The more familiar or fun the location, the more fun everyone will have.

2. Let’s play! Ill always get the standing-smiling shots but after we get a few let them play and ill run around after the kids getting candids and occasionally asking them to look into the camera.

3. Time of day. Choosing the time of day will dramatically affect the look of the images. If your after the golden sun look- afternoon or early sunrise is best. During the day we can find a shaded spot but the light is always harsher and you can’t replicate that sunny glow you get from the early or evening sun.

4. Outfits. Choose clothes you and your kids feel comfortable in and that represent who you are. Neutrals always work if you’re not sure. But- please don’t match in all white ;) ;)

5. Just roll with it. Sometimes kids have a mind of their own no matter how hard we try so its best to not stress and just try to enjoy the moment as I capture you’re crazy but so rewarding journey as a parent and family.

The Rona's | Perth beach family session

Finding joy in every season can be tricky right? These guys were supposed to be in the UK but were stuck here in Perth as borders closed. It can be so easy through this season to focus on what we’ve missed out on, on where we are supposed to be, on how we thought this year would turn out like. As restrictions start to lift the aftermath still remains. 

They are together at the beach. They are safe. They are happy. What a perfect way to remember this season. Today, let’s reset and change our perspective.
